Sommario/riassunto: | Transitions: Legal Change, Legal Meanings illustrates the various intersections, crises, and shifts that continually occur within the law, and how these moments of change interact with and comment on contemporary society.

Whether by an abrupt shift in regime or an orderly progression from one government to the next, political change often calls into question |
